Tap on the magnifying glass then a box appears at the top of the screen which will allow you to search for the chosen contact.

You can also use the phone dialer.
Start spelling the name on the dialer keypad. My most recent call match seems to come up first, touch picture to dial that number. The # of matches are shown on left side, tap that to open the list of all matching contacts. Matches are narrowed by adding more letters. Use enough letters to narrow to a reasonable number.

Hi
Is there any software that will zoom in on a text area? For example in a text field if I want to move from the 7 character to the 3rd character to correct a mistake it's a guessing game where you click unless you use the stylus. A friend showed me his IPhone and his will put a magnifying glass over the text area so you can move your finger left and the cursor will follow.
Searched on Google but could not find anything like what my friend had.
Thanks
ps. Could someone please change the title from [REG] to [REQ]. Thanks

i don't see any significant magnification on the i-photo you posted
i agree that it's easier if you can move the cursor by moving your finger left or right in the magnifying glass but believe me it's as easy as using the arrow keys in htc keyboard to move the cursor!No need to tap on the screen, just use the arrows to find the right spot
The problem is I don't use the HTC keyboard. I use Resco with the iskin theme and are no cursor keys with that. I agree that the HTC keyboard with it's up down left right keys is the best way to navigate a text box but for people that don't use that keyboard it makes things more difficult.
has anything new popped up with this request. I know the Droid X and Droid 2 have this feature as well. Is there anyway to port this now that more and more android devices are getting this? Is it even possible to port something like this to the Droid 1?
the xperias used to have this... but they removed it with Android 8
As the title said
how do you put a photo to the number?
thanks
People > Tap on the name > Edit > Tap on the camera icon in the top left.
MMMmmm ok now in edit and see the camera icon
But when i tap it nothing happens...
That is weird, it should pop open a window where you can either take a photo or select one from the SD card.
Ok tried this
took photo> Menu> set as> Contact icon>
in the select contact strip at top of screen put in name of contact
then press enter and nothing happens
I still can't do this can anybody help?
I have now phoned t-mobile
The phone is to new for them and they don't know
The have given me the number of HTC UK to phone Tuesday
so i still have not got a clue how to do it...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The method above works for me on my T-Mobile desire. Edit contact and then press the picture of the camera top left?
Im getting nothing when i do that...
To use the photo button it seems that the contact has to be saved to the phone and not the sim card.
My did not work either but once I had copied everything over to the phone it worked a treat.
Ok this could be the answer
Now how do you transfer the sim to phone?
( if it's not one thing It's another... )
A BIG THANK YOU

Glad you got it working in the end!
svetius: "jump to your device" -- shouldn't this go above the dropdown so no rollover
Hey I cannot quarrel with the man who brought Youtube embeds within 48 hours or initial request... (btw, am I the only one using it? ... wait, let me answer that: yes. But I like it, so thank you !)
That pair of "quick navigation to your phone" tools at top right has been really great. It's just that enroute to using the text box to type in "desire" I almost always rollover the dropdown which causes an obstruction to my desired objective.
You probably wrestled with this and have reasons for the way you did it. But just in the event you were really really smashed that night and really had no rationale whatsoever and just flipped a coin, are you open to trying to flip the two...
Another unsolicited usability comment in the spirit of improvement. The xda favicon is such a welcome change from the boring vBulletin v, but I find it hard to read.
Did you ever come across how they went about remaking the YouTube favicon to improve its readability? It sounded very esoteric by god it did the job... A reader submitted it -- and YouTube took her up on it, and adopted it:

About the drop down...in the forum redesign we're working on, you must click the drop down to get it to open.
About the fav icon...feel free to make one that is better than the current. All of us are quite pleased by the new icon. It's not perfect, but making a legible 16x16 graphic is very difficult.
Is there a way to bring up a contact on my phone and then forward that using SMS? I have searched everything I can think of and haven't been able to find an answer. My wife uses me as her personal 411 and I can't tell you how much it would mean to me if I could bring up a contact she's asking about then choose and option to SMS send it to her.
Help please, if you have any suggestions.
you mean send phone number (contact) with sms ?
Yes.. exactly!
Andy... Where is the app for that screenshot?
Major warning guys
Do not click on the picture above as it sends you to a site that is nastily infected... just in case this only happened for me, please do not hesitate to delete this message... anyrate, just a friendly warning...
Also, yes please, tell me where we can get this extension!
This is a feature in WM 6.5 (or maybe it's 6.5.x) anyway - I know I can send a contact (or part of a contact, you get to select what exactly) by SMS or Beam (infra-red if you still have an irda port)
I can't screen shot (don't have the app installed) but have tested it - it works great between WM devices, however sending info to an iPhone results in absolutely nothing happening - so must be a WM native thing?
Aj
Im also lookin for something like this i guess i got into the habot after i used a nokia when my old phone was on the fritz i could send a contacts details to anybody and they would recieve it no problem. While my TP2 which is supposed to be such a "smart" phone cant send a contacts details??
try this, it's not perfect though:

Been toying around and learning LUA nad made a few faces. Please feel free to provide feedback
First up I called speed dial - Fairly straight forward - Hour hand on the outside and minutes/seconds share the inner dial.

Next up I named Radar - The sweeping second hand, well sweeps like radar. Also, the red spot on the inner circle is the batter percentage traveling around the circle.

Lastly (for now) I named this one simply Rotation. Is is a play off the stock rotator face. Sweeping seconds dial.

When I read watchfaces by a noob I thought... Anyway I love two out the 3 and they are on my phone. Well done and thanks! The 3d is good but I've one like it. The best is the first IMO. Looks like a car speedo.
Sent by entanglement.
Thanks, I seem to toggle between the radar one and the speed dial one most. Just getting into the designing so who knows what else may come to mind
like the last one!
post it on watchmaker's google+ page too! there's a lot of activity there
the last is beautiful
Thanks guys, ironically its the one I use the least. Will be uploading a few more today
